Silence Me

People tell me that they trust me, but how can they when I don’t even trust myself.

Ali and her father moved to San Francisco after he had been diagnosed with cancer; forcing Ali to leave behind her childhood, family and friends, and along with jeopardizing her relationship with the one person she loves more than anything in the world: Austin.

But Ali has a dark secret; one that she plans to take to her grave in hopes that it will never resurface. That is, until he came along.

When Ali starts off her senior year she’s hoping for a fresh start – to act and feel normal like a teenager should. However, that was shot down the moment she was forced to be paired up in her drama class, because she suddenly found herself taking quite an interest to her partner when she knows she shouldn’t: Joel McKnight. He’s aloof, stab-worthy, and downright arrogant when he wants to be. But Ali isn’t fooled. Just like her, she knows he’s hiding something. Who else would stare at a photo of their dead girlfriend at their schools’ memorial wall everyday?

Somewhere there’s truth behind the lies.
